I'm living for all this Disney Princess Yuzuru Hanyu fanart

Kind of random but now I'm imagining Yuzuru Hanyu the Disney princess in my head after I finish reading that interview ngl, I'd watch it

Someone get me a better sense of humour

Yuzuru's height debate continues

Someone should make a parody comic series out off this. Count Hamyulla the Fab Vampire Hamster, on the hunt for infinite gold. And if you were wondering, yes, he sparkles

Yazunori Hanyu is nothing, does anyone remember Yuzuru Hamyulla?

1 hour 31 min until 2017-2018 season I swear this is like New Years countdown but for figure skating fans speaking of which, how many Yuzuru emojis did you guys make when I was gone this week, jeeze you people work fast.

Yep, he burns out quickly and his skating deteriorates a bit after the first one or two minutes of his program. That leaves the impression that he can't "keep up" and a lot of people thinking he's worse than he actually is because they compare his ending speed and edges with his starting. Yolo!3A and second half quad combos, he's come so far :')

Back then I've only casually followed FS for about 3 years and while I can identify jumps, I didn't really understand SS or TR all that well so admittedly Yuzuru's SS never stood out to me that's not saying much tho, not even Patrick's stood out to me at the time Now that I'm watching his older programs again, his edges are good they're nothing compared to what they are now tho, so is his multi directional skating, he covers a lot of ice and like you said, he's ridiculously fast. I think the rumour that Yuzuru has bad SS is, to begin with completely false, but also probably derived from his stamina. He slows down near the end of the program, he's still fast, but not as fast as he was in the start and that's what people notice, not his actual speed. His posture nearing the end is also subpar It's not the worst tho, let's be honest for a second which has nothing to do with SS but I realise a lot of casual viewers tend to look at the upperbody instead of... well the skating. He still gets a lot of mileage out off his crossovers and honestly he never really "stalk" his jumps, or at least when he does, he's really coy about it. Also his twizzles, his twizzles are always amazing

His stsq is great too. Actually now that I'm rewatching this, I realise even back then his SS isn't as bad actually it's good as a lot of people seem to think.

I understand that completely, but really the entire program is great, his spins there especially are And of course costume it A++++

YES, SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS ME Also Yuzuru's thought are not what I was expecting to wake up to

Well guys, I'll let you all know that I did the thing I told everyone I won't do and spent a huge chunk of money buying magazines with Yuzuru's face on the cover. Rip my wallet 2017

Here's to them unleashing footage of that perfect 4Lz FEED US, WE HUNGRY HUNGRY

I suspect that's the lighting's fault. Either that or Yuzuru wearing it just magically makes it look expensive

Ngl, it looks worse with nothing to fill it up

Holy cheese, thank you so much all this, must have taken a lot of time backtracking through all those pages

Is this... what they call hope?

Who knows, his 4Lz edge is noticably better than his 3Lz, maybe the same applies to 4F

Once I get home then Kumamon alone is gonna turn that thread into a meme hall of fame

If anyone is interested, I'm 100% on board with making a Japanese Mascots thread somewhere

Since Japanese Study Group is in Space Junk, an English one would probably belong there as well, I assume. But, if you're on a computer, there should be a button on the upper right that says "Start new topic."

You should probably make one then, I'm sure there will be other members that will find it useful

I REALLY want these in HD

I would judge you, but that would make me a hypocrite
